INTRODUCES
Platner Collection

In 1966, architect and designer Warren Platner transformed steel wire into sculptural furniture by welding hundreds of vertical steel rods to circular frames. The result is a harmonious and elegant collection of chairs, tables and stools. All metal components are finished in a polished nickel or bronze paint finish, offering the ultimate in timeless design.

Product description
The Platner Collection captured the “decorative, gentle, graceful”shapes that were beginning to infiltrate the modern vocabolary. He trasformed steel wire into a sculptural furniture collection. The pieces are created by welding hundreds of curved, steel rods to circular frames, simultaneously serving as structure and ornament.
With unity, ingenuity and attention to detail in both form and fabrication, the Platner Collection was introduced by Knoll and has been in continuous production ever since. The Collection is now considered a design icon of the modern era.
